This is a great WBF it's a tricky subject formulating a strategy for targeting international serps. It would also be interesting to factor the search filter options that are available on google.it serps as i'm based in Italy so the filter options available (on the left column of the results) for Italian pages, sites based in Italy and also translated pages. It would be interesting to know how much these options are used in various countries and how much this would influence the decision making process on how to target that country.

Another classic example of excellent link bait from the Seomoz team, fun and will definately cause a lot of buzz. I scored higher than I thought and that is thanks to all the great info that available from this site. A small addition would be option to send the result via email at the end of the test so you can use them as reference. Thanxs again!!! September 11, 2007

An experiment I carried out using Google blogger which I created a site with no inbound links and transferred it two another host after two months and was out of the sandbox within two months receiving and serps. (this is only a single experiment though) October 28, 2006

I been learning cake for about the last couple of weeks and it seems like a good MVC framework other frameworks I looked at were symfony and also codeigniter both I like but symfony is a bit harder to install on a remote host, code igniter is not realy mature enough yet but is more of a lightweight framework but the docs are much better that cake.

This nofollow attribute is a google type fix for a problem of their own creation. Before adsense spam was a lot less and the internet contained a higher level of quality content. Google's moto of "Do no evil" has actually backfired here (as soon a you introduced a way to monitize a website of poor content masses of spam has been created). Naturally this wasn't Google intent but i don't see them putting the hands upto to it and now they ask/tell us to use nofollow to help them out. If they created the problem they also can reverse the problem but this will never happen.
as for Yahoo do they even support this attribute at the moment because so far the only official stand is Google's so maybe Yahoo do or not. But would Yahoo say the use this Google created standard anyway. (as far as i know)
nofollow is here to stay but Google will need to improve their link baiting attribute with the promise of imroved ranking before it gets taken universally.. May 15, 2006

The latest trend is CSS for web designers, ajax is also very hot and how many sites use it when its not realy required, the nexy thing you'll be saying is it's better to develop using an apple mac trends and coolness come and go in business performance is the key for most firms. If you can build the same layout and functionality using both but using CSS takes 20% longer then CSS/XHTML is not the right choice. If CSS/XHTML was so much better than why are yahoo etc still using them CD's are much better than vinyl when was the last time you used a vinyl record !! May 12, 2006

I have had mixed reactions with some well known (trusted??) sites their link juice is almost added instantly and lesser sites (but very specific) taking upto three months to start adding to the serps. It wouldn't surprise me if google now implements linking on a time delay depending on the trust rank of the site. Another point would be it would be a good way to counter act rss aggregators which spew out many links and change on a daily basis. It would be very interesting to have a comparison of trusted site linking compared to lesser trusted sites and their time lapse of beneficial linking. April 11, 2006

Coming to this site i'm looking for opinions i subscribe to a number of sites which are just are human aggregators and although i still subscribe i rarely vist the site to look at anything else these feeds have no soul. Even the links are more often than not left unvisited. On article one topic is prahaps not enough but two or three topics with shorter views might be better. December 21, 2005
